Have to admit these books are getting tired and I wish I wasn’t compelled to finish series that I start. Joe’s obsessive, controlling, self-justifying, and needy personality disorder is A LOT.

It breaks my heart to give this book less than 4 stars. But, that's where we are. My constructive criticism of the last book stands. I want her to write these for herself, not for the show. And it feels like a George R.R. Martin thing right now. The show has gotten ahead of the books. And the show just might be better.

While this book was fun, it took over half the book for it to get interesting. Joe's games are getting old now. It's getting quite repetitive.
